So I got my Roamio Plus up and running just now(only about 10 minutes to activate the cable card) and I went to try some of the apps...

Working...
MLB
Hulu Plus
YouTube

NOT WORKING...
Vudu -- INSTANLY gives me a V301 Error every time
Netflix -- I see a spinning circle for a second then see the V301 error
Amazon -- It starts fine and I can use the arrow keys but the SELECT key doesn't work so I can't select the box to log in or anything.

I forced a connection and it was taking forever to load data so I went to bed.

It was on 20.3 so it does need an update (even though it said it did an update during the initial setup)

Either way, none of those apps work. The Amazon app issue is wierd, some buttons work in it and some don't, including the select key.

The apps are kind of strange in a way because they were developed by different people and don't follow any common design guidelines (like say Apple TV apps do). So your button problem may be that buttons are supposed to work. Its an adventure trying to figure out how to get out of these apps since they all exit differently.

For me,
I've used Amazon daily and its worked fine on Mini and Roamio
I've used MLB daily, and its very finicky. If you do much FF or RW, it just locks up... sometimes reboots the Mini when you hit Tivo to get out... sometimes comes back to Tivo screen.
I've used Netflix a few times and it works fine for me.

Not used the others much, but did try them and they worked.

Until your TiVo updates, most of the apps probably won't work.

Ok, finally got the 20.5.2 update and all the apps work but now I get the same rebooting exiting MLB.TV as everyone else. Before it updated(was on 20.3.8), MLB.TV worked fine, with no rebooting. :(
